"The seven names for God that Mother developed," says Jesus, "which had placed
her into a category all by herself, weren't just merely names. They became part of a
model that we developed to explore the nature of humanity as divine image.”
“The model is more than just a list of names,” says Jesus to Mary. “The model is a
framework for exploring the interrelationships of the aspects that the names
represent. The names become functionally alive in the model, even though the model
is quite simple and easy to understand.
"Your sparkling eyes seem to say that you want me to demonstrate this for you.
"Well, you can do this actually yourself. Let me guide you.
"Simply draw a triangle into the sand, pointing upwards. This becomes the foundation.
A triangle is unique in geometry. It has no opposite sides. This is important, because
opposites do not exist in the spiritual dimension.
"Another feature of the triangle is that everyone of its points is linked with every
other. This is important for spiritual perception. Nothing stands isolated. Also a
tripod structure, a structure that stands on three legs, stands secure without
wobbling on the roughes terrain. This is also a critical metaphor in the spiritual
domain.
"Now draw another triangle into the sand, below the first one, but pointing
downward. Keep a generous space between the two. You have now expanded the
foundation into two parts.
"With this done, you ready to apply the seven names for God. With these names you
build the Great Model of God. In the academy, we've put the name Mind onto the top,
and Principle and Spirit at the side corners of the upper triangle. We have labeled
the side corners of the lower triangle, Life, and Truth, and have label the bottom
point, Love. Having done this, left us only the name, Soul. We have placed Soul in the
middle, between the two triangles. And, Mary, that's it! The model is complete, and it
is now up to you to explore it, and to ask yourself if the model that you have created
is correct. This means that you need to explore in your heart if the model stands up
in living and reflects what you know about God."
"How can anyone know if this is right?" interjects Mary. "What would hinder you to
swap the names Principle and Spirit, for example? Isn't one as important as the
other?"
"If you do that," says Jesus, "you have to swap the lower names too, because there
exists an inherent link between the two lower and upper sets of names. Principle and
Life are linked. Life is Principle. Principle is Life - a unit of one. Principle and its idea
is one.
"Likewise, Spirit is Truth. Truth is Spirit. The unit is one. Truthfulness and justice
are prime spiritual qualities. One cannot understand justice other than Spirit, God,
coming to light.
"You asked me if the model is right? One knows that it is right when one cannot
improve it anymore. At this point it is right for the moment, until Love inspires a
more-advanced perception. Love inspires, designates our path, and leads us on the
way. So for now, I would say that the model is right. It is after all, an exploration
model.
"Of course there exist also other possible links, across the center of Soul. Spirit and
Life, link through Soul. Likewise Principle and Truth, link through Soul. Here, the
garden of exploration becomes more complex. Soul has a significant role to play. This
role becomes still greater if one links the extremities, Mind and Love, also through
the center, through Soul.
"Between Mind and Love, Soul is the glue. Soul is the nuclear strong force that ties
the whole thing together.
All terms in the model come to light profoundly when seen through Soul. This means
in human terms, that they are coming to light through our heart and soul. Soul pulls
everything together tightly and brings us close to God.
"If one draws a circle around the upper part, from Mind to including Soul, one groups
together a functional unit that furnishes our creativity and powers our productivity.
"If one does the same for the lower half, one encapsulates Life, Truth, and Love,
with Soul. This combination groups together our down-to-earth half.
"Furthermore, if one combines the two halves that way, Soul becomes an anchor that
holds both halves together. The divine image man becomes thereby a single beautiful
construct.
"And still it gets more interesting. If one applies this model to the physical shape of
the human being, the head relates to Mind on the top, and Love becomes related to
the genitals at the bottom.
"The arms are that with which we create and build. They relate to Principle on one
side, and Spirit on the other. Below them, our legs that we plant on the ground,
relate to Life on one side, and Truth on the other side.
"Of course, if we apply this divine model to man, as the image of God, the seven
names for God apply by reflection written in lower-case letters.
"Man is not God, but is God's reflection. Human love, reflects divine Love. God, Love,
is reflected in love unless we intentionally block it.
"Likewise, Mind, is reflected in mind, and, Soul, is reflected in soul. In Mother's
academy the entire complex has been coming to light right from the start so it
seems, though not fully developed then. Mother said that the unfolding Soul-sense
inspired a celebration as God was coming to light in ever richer measures with no end
in sight. Mother said that Soul is what she felt the strongest and still does. It is a
'presence' that one can trust. If one can't trust ones innermost soul, what can one
trust?"
"By figuring out what God is, using this model, we figure out what man is, who is the
image of God. Thereby we can know the nature of universal humanity. The model
defines all. We do not know anything more about man, than we know about God, nor
anything less. God and God's image must match in every detail.
"The circumcision, of course, wrecks this," Jesus continues. "The masters who would
rule society, say, if Love is one of the key divine elements, reflected in loving, let's
amputate the loving and render society loveless to whatever degree this is possible.
You can justify this by saying that the wisdom of God is wrong. By getting society to
accept this, you amputate an elements of Mind from its image. Society thereby
becomes increasingly mindless. And with this process you also amputate a portion of
the sense of Soul. Society becomes increasingly soulless thereby. Its sense of
beauty, harmony, poetry, music, the reflection of Soul in man, diminish. It is
evidently not possible to build a civilization on this wrecked landscape.
"Mother pursued the opposite path to the trend of the world. Instead of allowing
everything vital to be amputated, Mother determined that she would instead
celebrate God's rich expression to the fullest. What society amputated, she
celebrated as a vital element of God. Instead of becoming mindless, she celebrated
the wisdom of God. What touched her heart in the process, was the fire of the sense
of Soul, both in her seeking, and in her finding, and it was done with fierce heart
beats. And those must have been fierce indeed, because I am the outcome of it,"
says Jesus and smiles. "I am not the Son of God, but the son of the model of God and
man understood, acknowledged, and celebrated to whatever degree it had been
developed then. The model became functional in all its beauty."
"She was lucky she wasn't raped," Mary interjected. "I was raped. It devastated me
especially at first. Later I learned how to deal with it."
"Mother didn't allow it. Rape was not possible for Mother. No one could touch her.
She refused to allow it," says Jesus. "She only allowed love that is honourable, with a
spiritual intention, and with a motive that is just.
"With Principle being reflected through Soul, as Truth, justice is reflected in rich
measure from within. Likewise, with Spirit being reflected through Soul, as Life,
living unfolds as a song. Life as Spirit renders everything spiritual, which is
experienced in the heart and soul in human living. The physical bears the image of
Spirit. Every aspect of life bears the image of Spirit. The divine Spirit thereby
becomes our spirit, and the divine Principle, our principle of universal good. And it all
flows through the channels of Soul to be felt in our heart and soul. When Soul's
music tone is lost, all is lost. But when it touches the human heart, existence becomes
a heaven's hymn. Rape is not possible in this environment, lest one would rape God. In
the dynamics of God, Love is always outward oriented. The rapists is inward looking,
by which the perpetrator commits rape upon itself.
"On our travels through Tibet, mostly by yak, through this far place with wide-open
landscapes, we came upon an ancient type of monastery," says Jesus. "The monks
there, if that's what they were, offered us lodging for a few days. There, one of the
monks showed me a drawing on silk that was hanging in a window. The drawing was of
a holy person looking at the sunrise. Then the monk asked us to go outside with him
and see the drawing from the outside. He pointed out that if one looks from the
outside in, one cannot see the true picture. The monk pointed out that everything is
reversed if one looks inward from the outside. The sides appear reversed. If one
wants to see what is true, one has to be on the inside looking out. The monk pointed
out to us that love has to be out-flowing for it to be true.
"He took us next to what appeared to be the holy part of the place where a small
stone sculpture was placed, of an ancient god and goddess sitting in the wide-open
lotus possition. He pointed out that one sitting in this possition calms the mind for
deeper meditation, and that it also exposes the genitals as wide as possible to the
universe, the universe of Spirit.' One thereby invites the divine Spirit to flow out
through it,' he said, 'to flow through one's body, from the head to the heart, and out
through the center of love, unceasingly, in a continuous celebration of the forever
divine blessing, like one was saying: Father-and-Mother Love, loving me, guide my
footsteps forever to you, in order that I may love in the flow of your Love.'
"He told us over supper that day, that this kind of thinking was fast disappearing.
"Mother had commented to him that he was wrong, saying that this kind of thinking
was just beginning to unfold, and that she had walked on this plain all her life. 'I kiss
the vulva as a blessing, not as a burden, and kiss with that the great heart of Love
that it symbolizes, that nourishes us all. I bow before our Mother-Father God.
Father is my temple. Mother is my church. Both are out-flowing. An observer
discerns nothing by looking inward from the outside. All comes to light by looking
outward away from oneself, as the Spirit flows. This means that everything that
reflects God in humanity needs to flow from the 'inside' out and flow through the
channels of loving, because this is how God functions. Any other direction goes
against the grain of the divine design. Justice must be out-flowing, through love,
likewise life. Nothing is gained when one seeks love from the outside looking in!'
"The monk had agreed with Mother and reiterated what he had said earlier, that one
sees everything reversed by looking inward. One can't build a civilization by looking
at everything backwards.
"'That's why nothing works,' Mother had commented. Especially rape doesn't work,
whether it be political, financial, economic, or social. The rapist always commits the
rape primarily upon itself.
"Mother typically healed the wanting-to-be rapist. She knows that if one follows the
great model of God and man, healing occurs. She discovered this almost from the
beginning. It sort of runs in the family.
This is why greed doesn't work, and theft, fascism, and war don't improve anything -
why empires collapse. The masters of empire become rapists upon themselves. The
circumcision only aims to throttle the out-flow of love. The system of empire is a
rapist's invasion by a force that not only blocks love, but forces society to work
against God and against itself. It is rape on God, so to speak. Greed, as one of the
components, is by design an invasion into love. It profits nothing. The outcome is
destructive. A society that commits itself to this rape destroys itself. It would have
never happened in Mother's academy.
"Unfortunately it is happening everywhere else in many different forms. Rome, for
example, is destroying itself with its raping, as did every empire before it, and every
empire after it will."
"Doesn't this rape make God angry?" Mary interjects.
"That's not a possibility, is it?" says Jesus. "Nothing affects God, and God's
reflection. God is not reactive, but reflective. Divine Love remains what it is, and
those whose heart and soul is still alive and vital, will reflect this love. I am able to
heal people by waking up their heart and soul that activates in them the divine design.
Suddenly they discover that they have a mind that reflects the divine, which is not
small by any means. All the dreams of finity and limitation, go out of the window. And
they also discover divine Love reflected in their loving of themselves as complete
human beings, and others likewise. They begin to love universally, as you, Mary, have
begun.
"I would like to suggest that your loving has grown too big and wide to be ever
confined again into a small scale marriage environment. Divine Love and its reflection
cannot be confined.
"All nature teaches us that Love is universal, wide, rich, profound, even explosive with
a great exuberance, if you will call it that. Infinite Love reflected universally will be
the human landscape of the future. This is inevitable, because God is what God is,
now and forever. Till we get there, love appears small to many, because they are
looking at it from the outside. They will attempt to rape and steal because they
recognize themselves to be empty inside. Until this emptiness is filled from within
and the normal dimension of love is discovered and experienced, rape will continue,
including the circumcision as a form of it, and society will continue to suffer the
smallness of its heart including its small marriages that affords it some protection
from the rape of loveless living."
"Marriages shouldn't stop, then, should they, even though the small marriage model
nearly got me killed?" Mary interjects.
"Why should they stop? They should expand," says Jesus. "They should become seed
kernels for an expanding process. The limited should become way marks on the path
of growing up where we discover that we all have the same Father and are sharing a
single humanity by which we are already more deeply married with one-another than
any marriage commitment or ceremony could ever sanctify.
"We can only move forward on this path and recognize what already is the reality of
our being, whereby we begin to celebrate evermore consciously the gold that we have
universally and live as children of that single light in which we are one, and one with
God."
"This expanding marriage model that mirrors the Great Model of God, will be the
salvation of humanity in future times, before the great night begins anew in which
the Sun goes dim as the legends from ancient, almost forgotten times, tell us of.
"What happened before will happen again, but before it does, humanity will either
live as one people and work together in preparation for the long cold night, in the
manner that a great love for one-another will assure, or society will remain small in
heart, impotent, standing on the outside looking in, and will perish of the
consequences.
"I like to suggest that the latter is not a pleasant choice."
"If it came to that, it would be the ultimate circumcision, the ultimate rape, the
ultimate injustice of humanity against itself," Mary interjects. "I can see now why
you say that justice too, as a reflection of Truth coming to light in truthfulness, has
to come from within. It can only come from within. There exists no other path in the
model, and as you said, this may be the only model there is."
"I didn't say this," says Jesus. "We have recognized in the academy that two more
different versions of the Great Model of God must exist.
"God's relationship with the physical universe must be reflected differently, by a
different form of the model. We have come to recognize that in God's relationship
with the physical universe, God as Principle, plays a dominant role. The entire
universe is a complex construct of harmonizing principles expressed. If a single one
of these principles on which everything is built, would not exist, we would not have a
universe. Nothing would exist. This means that Principle is the heart of God's
expression in the physical universe.
While this model can be used as a resource for healing our physical ills, I am not too
concerned about it, because the physical universe operates perfectly. There is
nothing that I or anyone can add, though we need to be truthful about it. John says
that if one doesn't understand Principle and divine intention, one cannot understand
the universe in which one lives.
The rocks below our feet are nothing primitive. They are the dynamic construct of
great intelligence manifest as universal principles and their interactions, expressing
divine intention on a scale we are just beginning to discover. While I love what I see,
I am not too concerned about it, because this aspect is perfect and complete. It is
done.
"Also, I am not too concerned with God's perception of itself, in the absolute sense,
which comes to light again as a different version of the model. Here, Love is
evidently the heart and the center. Higher than Love one cannot look. Farther one
cannot go. This fact is self-evident, isn't it? Nothing is greater in its expression than
Love, so it seems. Love is at the center of everything, because everything is
intrinsically good, or else again, we wouldn't have a universe. The universe is
established. It works. It functions, because God is Principle and Love.
"While this model, too, is a valuable resource for healing, I am not overly concerned
with it, because the absolute is perfect. There is nothing I can add or need to add.
However, as John keeps saying, if one doesn't love, one cannot see God, because God
is Love. If Love is the heart of God, by loving, we begin to discover what God is.
"John explains with his saying why I am deeply concerned with the model of God and
man, which defines the dynamics of God's reflection in us!
I need to know intimately how this model works, so that we can move with it, instead
of against it. This is important to me and to all of us!
It illustrates the dynamics of healing.
"Other models may exist. But these three are evidently the most critical. And of
these three, the model of man in the image of God, is the most critical. It is the
most critical for healing and for building a civilization. That is where the greatest
amount of work is needed right now, for us to live in the image of God. That's the
greatest challenge that I can think of. Every other challenge is small in comparison,
and is in fact subsumed by this great and possibly ultimate challenge. I am deeply
concerned therefore, in working with this model, because what the model illustrates
isn't fully done yet. It is still unfolding."
"Why doesn't God simply make us perfect then," Mary interjects. "Why doesn't God
make us perfect like the flowers in the field, or like the physical universe, or
himself?"
"This is an invalid question, Mary," says Jesus. "It is invalid, because we 'are'
perfect. We are greater than the flowers. We have a mind, reflecting divine Mind.
We are greater than physics, which we have begun to subsume and apply to benefit
us in ways that do not exist naturally. Almost everything that we live by has been
created by us!
We have learned to use fire, to use metals, to cut stone and built giants structures
with them.
"I have seen the pyramids. No other species of life can do these things, or ever did,
or even came close. We are the miracle makers, not miracle recipients. And we do
this routinely.
"The only miracle that we cannot do yet, is fly like the birds. But note, I have said
'yet', because it is inevitable that we will fly. We are not small. We are giants. We
will fly, and when we do so, we will fly farther and higher than any bird can. We will
fly around the world, even to the moon and to the stars, which no other form of life
ever has done.
"We will stand on the stars and look upon the universe from them. That's inevitable,
Mary, because we are man. That is why we need a special model to explore and define
us!
We are in a unique category among all of God's reflection, one that is unmatched by
anything.
"No other form of life has ever created poetry, literature, science, music, and so on.
No other living thing on earth has ever created a novel and a symphony, but we have
filled libraries and perform symphonic music routinely, with numerous types of
instruments and song.
"We have begun to discover what no physical eye has ever seen, or will see for a long
time to come. We know that the Earth is a sphere and that it is one of many planets
circling around the Sun, even while no one has ever seen this physically.
"We even know the size of the dimension of the Earth, without ever having measured
it. We are the pinnacle, Mary. We have volition, we have cognition. We are the
greatest form of life that ever was, and even wile we find ourselves at the pinnacle,
we are just beginning to discover ourselves and develop the potential we have.
"And above all, we have the power to love. If this isn't perfect, Mary, what is?
"We are bigger than any flower. Can you ask for more? We stand in the middle of an
infinite fountain that is poring forth more than we care to use. How could we ask for
more?
"The great model of God and man that we have developed in the academy, helps us to
get in line with what is, in order to be able to utilize more fully what God is laying
before us as our potential. This is big, Mary. This is gigantic. This is bigger than
gigantic. This is divine in the fullest sense that the term can imply. This is
monumental. We are the greatest monument to the fullness of God, which only hints
at what actually is, the divine.
"This is what we must move forward with. The gravest challenge lies before humanity
to prepare for the long night ahead, and be ready on the day it begins. The challenge
is physical in nature, but the solution to is spiritual in nature, and success depends on
matching the magnitude of the challenge with an equal or greater commitment of
spiritual power. We have a long way to get there and too little commitment in the
present world, to move the work forward.
"Mother interprets the lack of commitment in society as an indication that all the
work is done that can be done at the present stage. She says that it is unwise to beat
our head against a wall.
"When we came back to Palestine, Mother suggested that the academy should be
operating right in the open, healing people. We were doing this, and many people
heard us!
We are doing this more and more now, and fewer people are really hearing us!
We have become a curiosity. The resulting fame, though, is unproductive. Its
substance is paper-thin. It makes it almost impossible to do serious work. By the
fame the movement that has started out so promising, has stopped. We have reached
a threshold of some type. The threshold reflects the crippling effect of a mass
movement. A mass-movement is inward looking. The people look to me as if I was God,
instead of them standing with me looking outwards. The mass-movement cripples the
spiritual movement. That's when one has to step away in order to save what has been
built.
"Mother says we have come 'full circle.' She has her way with words. She is
increasingly focusing on the factor, seven, in a different way now. She keeps saying
that the seven names for God, while they are furnishing a great model for
exploration, also add up to a measure of completeness.
"In the creation story of seven days, which is a story of progressive unfolding, the
seventh day ends the sequence with acknowledged completion. Everything was
complete on the seventh day and was acknowledged as perfect. Mother says that we
are close to this point.
"Mother says that completeness means that nothing more is needed, and that
anything less wouldn't carry the day. Mother thinks we have come to this point of
completion. She says that what is complete is complete, and that this understood
fact must be acknowledged.
"I have a feeling that she thinks that the time has come for us to acknowledge to
ourselves that the work we have come here to do, is done.
"I think she means with that, that the academy is now so completely established that
it can run on its own forever without fail, and without anyone pushing it.
"Do you suggest that those seven men who came to your mother in the beginning had
the principle of the completion already built in?" says Mary. You seem to suggest that
they came to her in a manner that is divinely natural, that is so natural that it
appears miraculous to those not accustomed to the divine dynamics."
"Of course it wasn't miraculous," says Jesus. "Nothing is miraculous. You understand
this perfectly.
"What you told me about yourself, in respect to the men who have cut themselves
off from God with the circumcision, so that it is nearly impossible for a woman to
have a normal relationship with a man, because there are too few normal men left,
applies to men too. The men that have remained whole, all have the same problem in
building a normal relationship, because there are too few women left who have
experienced what a normal relationship is. Mother had raised herself above this
limitation. The rare quality that she had developed for herself became the attraction
that the men had seen in her when they looked her into the eye.
"So it was, that the type of men who saw and understood this quality in Mother,
'flocked' to her. She didn't have to apply to any of them. The apparent miracle in
this case is that those who are one with God in the highest sense, are actually the
majority in the world and can never be hid. If out of a hundred, 97 are spiritually
dead, then the remaining three who stand to count, are the majority. These three
are naturally bound to each other. For them, nothing can stand in the way. Apparently
nothing did in Mother's case. Mother had kept the gold precious. And with it, she has
raised me up, to the point where I could keep myself precious in my own sight. That's
how I received my first great healing, all inspired by Mother.
"Actually this first great healing unfolded in two steps," Jesus continues. "The first
step was tremendous. That's when I realized that I am the Son of God in deed and in
truth. This realization was exhilarating, Mary. It was like the sky had opened up and
poured me out a blessing that seemed too good to be true. The resulting sense of
being infinitely blessed, never diminished, or went away.
The second step that followed right behind it, suddenly amplified the first
realization. It unfolded as a healing when I realized that I wasn't alone in the world
as the Son of God, but that every person everywhere in the entire world, is the Son
of God likewise, in deed and in truth.
The second healing told me that I am not a freak with special powers that everybody
has to look up to. The second healing told me that I had actually discovered what a
human being is. One cannot look higher than this, than the fullest qualitative
expression of God unfolding in oneself. One simply cannot expect more than the
infinite. I had discovered who I really am.
I had begun to live in heaven, so to speak. I had touched the fringe, as it were, of the
wonders of God.
I discovered later that both of my healings were essentially one single healing. I had
learned to love God by being the Son of God, and by recognizing that everyone else is
so likewise.
From this basic imperative, from the Great Law, as Mother calls it, flow all true laws
in civilization. It supports all healing, all peace, joy, power, and our universal love for
one another. One cannot have more than this.
Mother's inspiration gave me the power to fulfill the Great Law, to be the Son of
God in my own sight. You can't imagine, Mary, what a tremendous uplift comes with
this realization? The universe suddenly lays at ones feet, and one becomes one with
it, because God is All."
"Actually, I think I can imagine what you are saying," Mary interjects.
"No you can't," says Jesus, gently. "No person can see this from the outside looking
in.
"You have to go through the experience yourself. You have to look at the universe
like God, from the inside looking out, and look at yourself that way, and everyone else
too, like God sees us."
"But how can I do this?" Mary interjects. "How can I experience something that I
can't even imagine?"
"That's easy," says Jesus. "You recognize who you really are, and with that knowledge
in your heart and soul, you step up to the pinnacle and prove it to yourself. As a
human being you are the grandest form of life that is. You are out of this world. You
grace the world. You give it color and vitality. This is what it means to be a human
being, a divine being - a human being is divine.
You can climb this ladder, Mary, and do it with joy. The first step towards the
pinnacle causes you to recognize yourself as the Son of God, because this is what you
are, as much as I am."
"That's not really possible," interjects Mary. "I am a woman. I may see myself as the
Daughter of God, perhaps."
"No Mary, the concept of, the Son of God, has a far greater meaning," says Jesus.
"Have you not heard it being said that a month in the calendar is a 'son of a year?'
That's how you can be the Son of God, while being a woman. In this context the term,
Son, has a higher meaning that takes one from being a personal appendage to God, to
being a part of the whole.
The concept of, 'Daughter of God', wouldn't do you justice. As I said, it would
render you to be an appendage to God. You are not an appendage. The real You rests
at a higher level. The concept of being the Son of God, in the context of "son of a
year," renders you and me an integral part of God with a great value for the whole.
That's a far greater concept than being just an appendage, isn't it? In fact, it is the
only correct concept possible, because we truly are a part of the whole that is One.
So, my 'daughter of the heavens', be the Son of God in the highest sense. You can do
this. Stop denying yourself. 'The heavens declare your glory.' That's the new song.
Let it be your song.
"Don't play the game that the self-blinded people play, especially the Pharisees, who
see you as a sinner. Don't oblige them! While it is certainly easy to forsake your
pinnacle and lower yourself into the mud of their perceptions and expectations, and
there play out the role they have defined for you - my counsel must therefore be:
don't do this. You don't have to do anything that would be unnatural for the Son of
God. Nothing in the world forces you to move against your innermost nature and
being. You must never play that role, and bow your head in shame, as they expect.
The divine fact is, and always will be, that you are the Son of God in the highest
sense, as a part of God, as much as I am.
"If you agree with me on this point, then the next step must be to prove to yourself
what you are. I know the Pharisees despise you. I also know that you play their
assigned role well and despise yourself in their presence. I know you would never go
near a Pharisee's house, much less knock on the door or enter. I suggest that you do
this very thing. In fact, I challenge you to do this, and to do this with the dignity and
the freedom of the Son of God, a woman standing tall, head held high, and more than
this.
"I challenge you to make it a goal for yourself to enter the highest Pharisee's house
at the next time one of them invites me to be his guest. Then, Mary, I challenge you
to walk right through the front door as if you had a right to be there, which you do
have as the Son of God, and then come before the entire assembly there and join me
as my honoured guest. If you do this, I will bow to you. I will bow to the love that you
will then feel in your heart, a love for yourself and for God that you are a part of. I
will bow to you before the entire assemply. I will bow in celebration of the great
breakthrough you will have demonstrated. At this point all the past well be forgotten
like a bad dream that never was real. And I will invite everyone to celebrate with us,
your a wakening to being a new man.
"If you can do this, Mary, I can guarantee you that what you have accomplished will
never wane. Instead, you will raise yourself to the same high level of truth in every
other respect, before every human being, so that nothing will ever stand in your
way.
"I can also guarantee you that when you reach this point, before everyone bows to
you, you will cry for joy, Mary, over what you have accomplished. You will then have
become a majority of One. Nothing will ever stop you after that. People will come to
you, instead of shying away. The nations will then come to you and embrace you, and
you and they, will be one, all having the same divine model, and the same soul, and the
same mind, and the same love.
"By this you will know that your healing is complete. And by this too, I will know that
my work here in Palestine has made a difference."
"I think I might do this one day, what you have just said, both for you and for
myself," says Mary quietly. "Except I will bow before you first and wash your feet,
the feet that stand beautiful at the pinnacle, and I will do this gladly in honouring
your having washed my soul.
"I also may hesitate to do this, because then you will move away, and I will loose you
forever."
"No," says Jesus. "The opposite will happen. If you do not do this, you will loose me
for sure. You will loose sight of me, for reasons that you have never really seen me
then. But, if you raise yourself up, to be the Son of God in deed and in truth, then,
and only then, will you find me, because then you will see me as I am. Wouldn't this
be the most appropriate conclusion?
"The next time that Simon the Pharisee invites me to his house, I will ask John to
alert you of it. Then don't be afraid. Perform your divine role, which is your native
role. The people of the company may call you a disturber of the peace as you do this,
but I also think that Simon will thank you for this very thing one day, for
demonstrating to him what a majority of One is, even if he won't fully comprehend it
then, and possibly never will."
"Hadn't Abraham discovered this principle too?" interjects Mary. "Didn't he
illustrate this principle in his defending the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah before
God? Didn't God promise Abraham that if one person with a majority of One could be
found in the cities, the cities would be saved?"
"Abraham was aware of something like that, but he couldn't find it," says Jesus. "In
the Sodom and Gomorrah allegory, God had agreed with Abraham that a majority of
One would be enough to save the cities. It turned out that this minimal requirement
of one person standing for what is true, could not be found. As a consequence, the
cities fell, so the story goes. The allegory suggests that if one steps outside the
bond of God and man that is reflected in the divine model, which is evident in every
aspect of human existence, civilization has no hope to be secure. Consequently it is
bound to crash. The crash is often called God's fury. This, of course, is systemically
impossible. God is Love. God doesn't operate a penal system. To the contrary, God
constantly nods us forward and out of the trap of small-minded thinking. The Sodom
and Gomorrah allegory was evidently written to illustrate the liberating divine
process, and the consequence of little minds that stubbornly isolate themselves from
God. That's how tragedies happen. The allegory presents the case of a predictable
natural disaster, such as a major earthquake. Abraham was alert enough to see the
writing on the wall. But he couldn't motivate anyone to respond accordingly. There
wasn't a single person found with a mind open to the truth. Consequently everybody
perished. The allegory wasn't actually about saving the cities themselves, but about
saving the people of the cities. Cities are but but structure of stone and wood. They
can be easily rebuild by the creative and productive spirit of human beings. But if the
people perish, who then will rebuild the lost structures? Thus, the cities will never be
found again. One alert leader speaking the truth convincingly, could have caused the
people to flee. Thereby the cities could have been saved. He would has stood before
the people as a majority of One, uplifting all people into the same bond where
intelligence rules.
"The Sodom and Gomorrah story is an allegory of folly," Jesus continues. "It is an
allegory that has been played out in numerous ways throughout time, and will be
repeated for evermore until the divine majority of One becomes established. Some
of the people that I have spoken to, with a deep cultural background, who speak of
the great night in which the Sun goes dim, have suggested to me that the Sodom and
Gomorrah allegory is about the return of the great night in which most people on
earth will perish, as no one is willing to respond to the alert pioneers who see the
writing on the wall, who thereby see the infrastructure that must be built, in order
that food can be produced throughout the long night. This means that a single person
with an honest scientific mind, who can see the future by understanding the dynamics
that operate in the universe, can become the effective majority in the world if he
can inspire humanity to open its eyes and see with the mind. In the allegory, Abraham
was aware of the challenge, but he found himself to be not equal to the task. He
didn't understand it. Consequently he failed.
In the allegory, which is essentially an allegory designed as a classical tragedy,
Abraham is given the role of the central tragic figure. A person who has established
himself as a majority of One, would have had inspired enough of a leadership to
evacuate the cities in a timely fashion. The secondary tragic element was society
itself that laughed at Abraham as a pathetic fool, instead joining him in securing the
safety of society. Those who laughed, perished in the consequence of their folly. And
so it will always be. God has given humanity a keen mind to know the truth, to
understand all things scientifically, to see with the mind what no single eye has ever
seen or can see before it happens. More than this we cannot ask. But if we laugh at
the blessings that have been so richly bestowed on us, we perish in the fires of our
folly. This is the lesson of the tale of the two cities that probably never had existed
outside the story of the allegory.
The response was totally different, however, in Mother's case," Jesus continues. "In
Mother's case, she had inspired a few people who had eyes they could open and a
mind with which to see, who saw in her the greatest majority of good they had ever
encountered. And so it was that they came to her, four men and three women. They
had responded to her spontainiously, to the idea of an academy.
"Mother says it happened almost instantly. What seemed like a miracle, happened as
if this was the most natural thing to do.
"That's what I wanted to say to you back in the temple, that you should keep this in
mind. I felt that if Mother is right about the completion being close, you would
understand my saying. Apparently you did. You might even understand now, that the
model for man with the seven names for God, is the model of the majority of One."
"In this case the seven names for God may not be enough" Mary interjects. "Can
anything be enough to name the infinite?
"Ah, that's what Hermes Trismegistus of ancient Egypt had struggled with, too,"
says Jesus. "Hermes Trismegistus had said that if God is all, all names must apply, or
none at all. The Hindu do not go quite as far. They have their seven million names for
God, expressed in subordinate little deities. Mother argued with them about this.
She explained to them that her seven names for the divine One represent infinity.
Now she recognizes that infinity also represents completeness.
"When nothing can be added to improve a construct, then one deals with infinity, and
at the same time one deals with a unit of One that includes all.
"This is what Mother sees herself being tied into now. And you are right, this type of
thinking goes back a long way with Mother, much farther than even I know."
